You Have Made Me Feel Guilty Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION

  Poetry

  

You have made me feel guilty

You have made me feel guilty
Without a word from you since then:
What have I written? What is the problem?
You have made me go down in penitence.

Did I hurt you?
You are an epitome of beauty, wisdom,
Affability, caring, full with benignant of love.
You have imprisoned this heart with
Your blazing brain and blazing beauty.

I have seen who you are
Before I hear what you say:
You’re a Queen of no less integrity.

Nothing seems extra-ordinary
relevance in life without you?

I am not happy missing your
Profoundly assessed quality?

I have bath an eyelid
Missing the gorgeous packaging of you?

You’re a Queen who’ve made herself
A maximum wife material
For maximum husband material
To have sleepless night.
What have I done to the world?

I am not saying that you’re cruel;
I am not saying that you’ve hated me;
But I feel something burning in my heart
That whom I dream of has deserted me
Because where there is love
people try to implore disunity.

This may sound disturbing to you,
But which man would not like to
Ignore other jobs to pursue you?
Except that the man is emotionally unavailable.

Since I have not heard from you
I have been through emotional trauma:
I wet my foam always because I feel
That I have injured you to stress
Your abstinence this far, it’s not in your character.

One can only avoid a person
When the person is warned and the person
Stands being not corrected.

Even if you may have decided this Way
I must tell you that missing you
Is like a clergy going to hell fire.

The wind has stopped singing!
The rain has stopped crying!
The sun has stopped smiling!
Since I could not hear from you.
